Launch guide from resource center module click
Hi there, I want a user to be able to click a module in the resource center that automatically triggers a guide. So, rather than clicking into the module and seeing a list of guides to select, I want a specific guide to launch upon selecting the module itself. Has anyone achieved this with a custom module?
Cheers.

Hey Dan Gleason, you might be able to do this by combining these two steps:
1. Getting the guide permalink.
2. Linking an external site as a separate resource center module.
Let us know if you do try it, would love to see if it worked for you!
Thanks Angus! I ended up getting it to work by adding the Pendo ID of the resource center element to the CSS open rule on the guide. Success!
Dan Gleason would you share your work please? I don't understand what you mean by 'adding the Pendo ID of the resource center element to the CSS open rule on the guide'. I have my Resource Center CSS ID Selector already in hand. And the Guide permalink.
Hey brandon, sure.
I could not get my Guide to work the way you described above.
I did just get mine to work this way, which is a combination solution of both of your approaches.
1. Get the guide permalink ID.
2. Create a Resource Center module using the Custom Code option.
3. Add the following Javascript in the Custom Code module that you added in the Resource Center:
pendo.showGuideById('XKQSC0RaNVzpe4FxHdo'); where the "XKQSC" value is your Guide Perm ID.
When you go to the RC, and Click on that module, your RC should close and the Guide appear.
Very late thank you to Dan Gleason and Jack O-Leary. This use-case resprouted recently and this came in clutch.
Jack O-Learys process didn't work for me until I added a dash before the guide ID and added quotes, as follows:
pendo.showGuideById("-WSP7R7tt8aD3eQJudlor6vDkwc")
